You can use lua for that...

do
       local tcp_port_table = DissectorTable.get("tcp.port")

       local http_dissector = tcp_port_table:get_dissector(80)

       for port in {4888,4889,4890,4891} do
               tcp_port_table:add(port,http_dissector)
       end
end

Thanks for that.

I might see if there is a sensible way to (optionally) persist them when
I get a moment.

The user decodes are not saved between Wireshark sessions.  The closest
you can get to such functionality is with certain dissectors that allow
you to specify an alternate port to decode as (for example HTTP, VNC,
etc.)
